Climate Resilience
Bicycle, pedestrian, micromobility, and transit facilities all help reduce emissions — but they can have a much greater impact if conceived, designed, and built through a climate resilience and environmental justice lens. At Toole Design, we actively integrate these strategies for communities anticipating, withstanding, adapting to, and recovering from damaging weather effects. By leveraging our knowledge holistically across planning, engineering, and landscape architecture teams, we empower community leaders to aggressively address challenges and implement solutions.
